1) LED = use the GPIO: ground + 5V/3.3V (I don't remember the pins, google it) There are at least 2 maybe 3 ''rails'' on the Pi, that stay powered ON when the Pi is booted up. It's mostly used for fans, but you may stick a LED on it too.
2) Switch = turning the Pi ON is alright, turning off requires a script. If you don't use a script to turn the Pi off, you may corrupt the data on the SD card. Oh, and yet again, use the GPIO, don't break the power lead to the USB. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

I've had it running as a KODI box for years, that has only been shut down by yanking the power. I've never had a problem. I've been playing with my build and must have yanked the power 30+ times in the last couple of days, no problem.
I don't want to run the LED from the GPIO logistically it doesn't make sense. ____________________ Well, you know what they say. If you want to save the world, you have to push a few old ladies down the stairs.

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 6 years, 4 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
